Strategically targeting MYC in cancer
MYC is a major driver of cancer cell growth and mediates a transcriptional program spanning cell growth, the cell cycle, metabolism, and cell survival. Many efforts have been made to deliberately target MYC for cancer therapy. A variety of compounds have been generated to inhibit MYC function or stability, either directly or indirectly. The most direct inhibitors target the interaction between ...

متن کاملTargeting MYC Translation in Colorectal Cancer.
There is a great interest in finding ways to inhibit the expression or activity of the "undruggable" MYC, a master regulator of transcription and one of the most deadly oncoproteins in human cancer. In this issue of Cancer Discovery, Wiegering and colleagues find a way of inhibiting translation of MYC in colorectal cancer cells by directly targeting the translation initiation factor eIF4A, resu...
متن کاملTherapeutic Approaches Targeting MYC-Driven Prostate Cancer
The transcript encoding the proto-oncogene MYC is commonly overexpressed in prostate cancer (PC). MYC protein abundance is also increased in the majority of cases of advanced and metastatic castrate-resistant PC (mCRPC). Accordingly, the MYC-directed transcriptional program directly contributes to PC by upregulating the expression of a number of pro-tumorigenic factors involved in cell growth a...
متن کاملTargeting MYC Dependence by Metabolic Inhibitors in Cancer
Abstract:MYC is a critical growth regulatory gene that is commonly overexpressed in a wide range of cancers. Therapeutic targeting of MYC transcriptional activity has long been a goal, but it has been difficult to achieve with drugs that directly block its DNA-binding ability. Additional approaches that exploit oncogene addiction are promising strategies against MYC-driven cancers. Also, drugs ...
